Columbus Teen Enters Alford Plea To 2013 Slaying

Columbus Division of Police

Sentencing is scheduled March 5 for a Columbus teen who has entered an Alford plea to killing an elderly man in February of 2013. 16-year-old Joseph Reeder says he acted in self-defense when he shot 64-year-old Anthony Hines at the East side home he shared with his mother. Police say Hines went to the home to purchase drugs from her boyfriend.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
